"15mm For The Love, 28mm For The Money"

"15mm For The Love, 28mm For The Money"

I've dropped this as a comment on various happenings in the 15mm world.

The simple reality is, most of us started in WH40K, which is a hodgepodge of 28/32mm "scale" (it's more of a grouping, but OK). We all went to 15mm to save money, or make a statement.

Unfortunately, making a statement doesn't pay the bills, especially if you're a manufacturer.

If you're a 15mm manufacturer, you need cash flow.
Making stuff in 28mm can make your 15mm dreams happen.

I don't begrudge you the fact that your more popular 15mm offerings would also sell better in 28/32mm versions. If anything, 15mm can be a test market for what might sell if made in a version that is double the size, and possibly 8x the cost.
